LETS HAVE A
DECENT ELECTION
There’s no reason in the world why
Transylvania county can’t have a per
fectly peaceable and decent election
next Tuesday, and the contest go off
without leaving any bitterness that
has been so evident here in years
gone by.
The fellows who get beaten in the
Tuesday election will have to go right
on living here just the same as if
they had not been candidates in the
election, and the fellows who get
elected will go right on living here
and serving all the people, so there
is all the more reason why they
should feel kindly toward every resi
dent.
Backers of the various candidates
will still be in business, fanning,
working, or plying their trades in the
county and they, too, will need the
good will of everyone if they are to
be successful in whatever lines they
are pursuing.
And besides all that, there is no
reason why we can’t all be gentlemen
and ladies.
TRY THE HOME TOWS
MERCHASTS FIRST
An educational movement of merit
is being started by several enterpris
ing business houses through the
Clemson Theatre and The Transyl
vania Times with brief and timely
messages appearing each week in The
Times and on the screen at the Clem
son Theatre that is of especial note in
Brevard and Transylvania county.
“Try the Home Town Merchants
First” is slogan of the year’s cam
paign and aside from being an inter
esting feature for both The Times
and the theatre has plenty of trut .
Brevard business men can and do
sell goods at lower prices than most
of the large center stores. This fact
has been proven time after time by
comparing prices on staple products
of well known brands with prices on
article- in large center stores.
The mb-belief that BIG stores can
sell cheaper than small town stores is
nil bunk. The bigger the store, the
more rent there is to be paid, the
more clerks there are to hire, the
more money there is invested, and the
bigger the city the higher the tax
rate is in most cases.
“Try the Home Town Merchants
First”....we believe it will prove a
saving to the purchaser.
We snitched the following para
graph iron) one of our county tot
respondents for the simple reason
that it is better than one ye scribe
could write himself:
No artist can paint a picture us
beautiful as are the scenes of these
October days when an autumnal
robe, decorated in colors of green and
red and yellow and brown and orchid
and lavender and blue and purple
and gold, has been donned by the for
ests of our mountains for our admir
ation and esthetic uplift.
The Times was severely criticized
last week by the “dean of weekly
newspapers” for carrying a story in
the paper about the freaks that
were grown in the county, so this
week we apologize by carrying a
news item telling of an ear of corn
twelve and one-half inches in length,
sixteen perfect rows and perfect in
every way. But we still insist that
the freaks mentioned in last week’s
paper made news regardless of the
“dean’s” idea.
(Then after the above paragraph
was set into type, along comes Julian
Glazener, and shows a diseased cob,
diseased grain and two “tush ' grains
on the ear of corn we thought so per
fect.oh, well.)
Help Brevard beat Boiling Springs
Friday afternoon by attending the
game on the College field. We’vo
got a good team, well coached, and
one that merits better support than
it has been getting.
....and in case you’ve forgotten,
Jordan street via the postoffioe is
for ea-tbound traffic only.
The Unknown Soldier has com
manded the respect and reverence of
millions:1 of people-an unknown
hunter has our respect-brought
two nice venison steaks to the office
while ye scribe was out, told Miss
Alma it was for “Dough” and tipped
his hat good-bye. We certainly in
vite Mr. Whst’s His Name to come
again.
PREACHER WEST
WILL RE MASSED
Brevard and the community will
miss the Rev. Joseph H. West, who is
leaving the Methodist work here
after five years of service to take up
pastorate work at Junaluska.
“Preacher” West as he is called by
most folk, and plain “Joe” West as
he is known to members of the Bre
vard Kiwanis club, has made an en
viable record during his five years
work here. A good preacher and a
good fellow in every respect, folk in
Brevard will miss the erect “grand
old man” of the Brevard Methodist
church after he is gone.
Junaluska or any other community
can well be proud of adding such a
man as Mr. West.
Only required by the church to do
his duty as pastor, holding services
regularly and attendant pastoral
duties, Preacher West has gone out
of his way to do community work,
taking part in civic projects of merit,
and being leading figure in locating
the Brevard College here.
Brevard will miss Preacher West.

Jack Frost is a merry little fellow
and he has been spreading himself
: over the whole country-side lately
A vast multitude of icicles has re
cently joined Jack Frost in profuse
I ly decorating the fields and forests
1 and gray rock cliffs,
j Politics is just about as lively these
I days and nights as Jack Frost. Mem
I bers of both parties are attending
I both the Democratic speaking ane
i the Republican speaking. All appeal
| to be anxious to find out what the
I people generally want and what the
different candidates propose to under
take to do. There is an old saying
that "Whatever is, is right.” We think
that this statement should lie some
what changed and perfected, so that
all may be able truthfully to say,
“Whatever is right, is.”
The sermon preached Sunday nitfnt
by Rev. J. E. Burt, the pastor of Oak
j Grove Baptist church, was most ex
